Overview before I order coilovers
Hello all, after reading and looking I want to post here what I am thinking and see if it lines up with reality.
I have a 2008 G37s coupe with stock wheels. I want to put 245/40 on the front and 275/35 on the back on the stock rims. I want to buy coilovers and lower the front 2 inches and the back 1 inch.
Here are my questions:
I want to make sure I think of everything before I put coilovers on and run into some pain in the "a" problem.
Thank you very much for advice, thoughts, and input!!

Here are my questions:
- Will I be able to keep the camber in factory spec without rolling or trimming the finders, so the wheels won't rub?
- Do I need front and rear camber kits to adjust the camber enough to keep it in spec?
- Will an alignment shop know how to adjust the aftermarket camber kit?
I want to make sure I think of everything before I put coilovers on and run into some pain in the "a" problem.
Thank you very much for advice, thoughts, and input!!

So I am going to need to spend, realistically, $2000-2500 to do it right... shucks.
I remember the old days with my 98 civic when I could simply cut a coil off each spring without even removing the strut from the car, and it was free!

You COULD do that with a 98 civic, but it didn't change the spring rate. I also remember guys taking a torch to those springs to lower the car...also a bad idea.
